< Hosea 1 >

1 Pakaiyin hiche thuhi Beeri chapa Hosea anapeh ahi. Hiche hi Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, chule Hezekiah ho Judah lenga anapanlaiyu chule Jehoash chapa Jeroboam Israelte lenga anapanlai ahi.
The Lord’s message to Hosea son of Beeri during the reigns of Kings Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah of Judah and during the reign of King Jeroboam, son of Joash of Israel.
2 Hiche hi amasatah-a Pakaiyin Israel mite koma Hosea anamanchaha thu anasei pat chu ahi. “Chenlang noti khat kichenpin, chutileh achate phabep khat noti cha-a hungkijil ding ahiuve. Hiche chun Israel chate Pakaija kona akiheimanguva, gamchom mite milim doi ahou-u chun noti chonna achonnao chu avetsah ahi.”
When the Lord began to speak through Hosea, he said to him: ‘Go marry an unfaithful woman who will bear you children by her adultery, for like an adulterous wife the land is unfaithful to the Lord.’
3 Hijeh chun Hosea in Diblaim chanu Gomer akichenpin ahile, chuin ahung gaiyin Hosea dingin chapa khat ahinpeh in ahi.
So he married Gomer, the daughter of Dibliam, and when she conceived and bore him a son,
4 Chule Pkaiyin aseiyin, amin “Jezreel nasah ding ahi, ati, ajeh chu keiman phat chomkhat jouleh Jezreel thisan kiso jeh'a Jehu lengpa alenggam talen kamat saha, Israel mite chamlhatna lenggam kasuhbei ding ahitai.
the Lord said: ‘Call him “Jezreel,” for in a little while I will punish the dynasty of Jehu for the blood shed at the valley of Jezreel, I will cause the kingdom of Israel to cease.
5 Hiche niteng chuleh Jezreel phaichama Israel galhatna kasuhbei ding ahi.
On that day, I will break Israel’s bows and arrows in the valley of Jezreel.’
6 Gangtah in Gomer in nao ahinvop kitin, chanu khat ahing kit in, chuin Pakaiyin Hosea jaha aseikitin, nachanu hi amin, “Dipdamna-bei, ‘Ngailutna–bei’ (Lo- ruhamah) - ajeh chu keiman Israel mite hi kangailut tah louhel ding ahitai ahiloule kangaidam lou ding ahitai, ati.
When she conceived again and bore a daughter, the Lord said to Hosea: ‘Call her Lo-Ruhamah – “No-Compassion” for I will no longer have compassion on Israel, certainly not spare them.
7 Ahinla Judah mite chunga kangailutna kavetsah ding, Pakai Pathen thahatna jal'a kahuhdoh ding ahi, galhat mite galmanchah jeh, sakol le sakol kangtalai thahatna jeh hilouva Pakai Pathen thahatna jal'a kajosah ding bou ahi.”
But on Judah I will have compassion, I will deliver them by the Lord their God, but I will not deliver them by bow nor by sword, nor by battle nor by horses nor by horsemen.’
8 Ngailutna beiyin anoichep aban phatin- Gomer in nao ahin vopkit in chapa ani channa ahing kittai.
After she had weaned No-Compassion, and when she conceived and bore a son, he said:
9 Pakaiyin aseiyin, “Amin chu-‘Kamite-hilou’ tin min sahin, ajeh chu Israel mite hi kamite ahitapouve, chule a Pathen-u jong kahitapoi,” ati.
‘Call him Lo-Ammi – “Not-My-People” for you, Israel, are not my people, and I indeed am not your God.’
10 Ahivanginla Israel chate twikhanglen panga neldijat le simjou lou hung hitei ding ahiuvin, ajahuva ‘kamite nahitapouve’ Katina laitah a chu “hingjing Pathen chate “Kati ding ahiuve.
Yet the number of the Israelites will be as the sand of the sea, which cannot be measured or counted, and where they were told, ‘You are not my people,’ they will be called, ‘children of the living God.’
11 Hitia chu Judah mite le Israel mite thakhatna hung kikhom kimsoh keijuva, alamkaidiu jong mihem khatseh akilhendiu gamsunga kona kitou tol ding ahiuve. Ajeh chu Jezreel nikho hi loupi ding ahiye.
The Judeans and the Israelites will join together again, will appoint for themselves one leader, will return to their own land. Great will be the day of Jezreel!
